The second European Shipping Week took place over the course of the week of 27 February - 3 March 2017, where policy-makers from the main EU institutions met and engaged with European shipowners and other stakeholders from the shipping sector. The focus was on shipping, in all its different aspects. Dates for the next European Shipping Week will be announced in 2018.
